Animal external fixation is a versatile treatment for fracture repair and used in the enhancement of both biological and mechanical environment for optimal healing of the fracture. Animal External Fixation used to serve as a secondary support or temporary support after surgical intervention and to keep limb in a neutral position.
It mainly used in the prevention of compression, rotation, bending and distraction of the fractured bone. External fixation mainly involves inserting pins in the proximal and distal locations of the fractures to provide mechanical strength to the bone in cases like comminuted bones, infected fractures, delayed wound healing and osteotomies. Basically, these pins were connected by clamps to bar.
Based on a number of planes and surface penetrated, they are classified into following types namely: Unilateral-Uniplanar, Unilateral-Biplanar, Bilateral-Uniplanar, Bilateral-Biplanar and etc.
On the basis of fixation type, they were classified into Ehmer sling used in providing stability of cranial and dorsal hip dislocation, Velpeau sling used to keep shoulder joint, elbow, and carpus in position, and Schroeder-Thomas splints are used in fracture distal to mid-humerus or mid-femur. Other types are metal spoon splints, B. SPLICA Splints, and C. Spoon Splints. Casts are mainly used to provide immobilization after surgery.
External fixation is frequently used due to rising trauma cases in animals fuels the growth of the animal external fixation market. Along with rising incidence of fractures, animal external fixation is also used for arthrodesis, stabilization, and angular limb deformity corrections.
External fixation also facilitates in fast wound healing, skin grafts and burn therapy by immobilization of the limb. The rapid advancement of technology also contributed to the development of lightweight implants for animal external fixation increased the compliance and decreased the infection of the bone. All these factors act as a driver in the burgeoning growth of the animal external fixation market.
Due to complication like element loosening, element tract drainage, pin tract fractures, and infection during external fixation limited the growth of the animal external fixation market.
